I mean there is a mom who questioned if her daughter even belongs at Auburn due to getting cut. WTF?!?! College is for education everything else are frills! I think people shouldn't be allowed to Rush/Pledge/Membership intake until sophomore year. I understand being excited for your child, but I don't think (actually she would not have been) my mom would have been destroyed if I had not gotten into AKA. Then the lady said she WAS a member of a sorority and wouldn't have changed it for anything in the world......WAS.....I thought lifetime goes beyond college years.
I don't think Auburnmom will be that affected, she can just post her news as she sees fit.
I just don't get it! There is more to college and life, some of these people sound sucidial. They need to seek counciling rather than greek life.
If you don't get in.....so what.....life goes on! Life does not begin with a sorority nor does it end there. So if anyone can give me a logical reason why these people are so weird then let me know.
This vvv was posted in the other thread and it is soooo fitting!

A-FREAKING-MEN. I have never been through an SEC recruitment and I thank God for that, so go ahead and rip me all you want for what I have to say next because I don't care.
I wanted to give FloridaTish a round of applause for this:

Correct me if I am reading this worng, but you actually said that to your daughter? It seems as if you are more interested in her being in a sorority than she is.
You are starting to wonder if she belongs at Auburn? Because she didn't get a bid? You've got to be kidding me? The last time I checked, I thought that we went to college to get an education. To question whether you belong at a college based on if you get a bid or not, shows a SERIOUS set of whacked out priorities or an obvious lack in faith in your daughter that she can find a niche on her own in a non greek organization.
I feel sorry for your daughter, but not just for getting cut from rush, but having to listen to comments like this from her own mom...

I don't see this as "ripping" on the mom. I see this as reacting to the comments the mom left. If this mom is in so much "pain", maybe she should take a deep breath and step back and not post when she's too emotional. God knows I've had to learn how to do that.
There are more of us out there who didn't go through an SEC recruitment. That said, reactions like FloridaTish's, 1908Revelations, and mine should be expected even if you don't like it.
The comment about adding another sorority at Auburn and even questioning her daughter's decision to attend there was just too much. No handholding here, sorry.
